Fred Thompson on Harry Reid’s attacks on Rush Limbaugh

Posted on October 3rd, 2007
By Fred in Announcements

Congressional Democrats are trying to divert attention from insulting our military leader in Iraq and pandering to the loony left by attacking Rush Limbaugh. He is one of the strongest supporters of our troops, yet Democrats claim he is not being strong enough. I wonder who General Petraeus and his troops think is most supportive?

Mitt’s response was more realistic. Fred’s soundbite just sounds too politically correct.

Admit it, you're just pretending to be a Mittwit to make them look bad.

They really don't need the help.

Hugh hewitt has Mitt Romney on and Mitt is saying that he is “unaware he’s part of the story”. as far as the Rush story...but really Mitt doesn’t seem to be saying much defending Rush. He IS defending Rush...now.

This might make me write a check to Fred. Look forward to seeing him in the first debate.

"Hell, has President Bush ever even addressed......."

Yes he has.

"In a news conference, President Bush denounced the ad as "disgusting" and criticized Democrats for not immediately condemning it."

"And that leads me to come to this conclusion: that most Democrats are afraid of irritating a left-wing group like MoveOn.org, or more afraid of irritating them, then they are of irritating the United States military," Bush said Thursday."

Thanks!

Our contest is not only whether we ourselves shall be free, but whether there shall be left to mankind an asylum on earth for civil and religious liberty” “ Samuel Adams

This is the prism through which I see our current struggle against Islamofascism. It is not enough that we ourselves be free. Freedom is the endowment our creator intended for us all, and our posterity.

I was not surprised by Hugh Hewitt.

He had Mitt on right away, to try and fix the mess. He didn’t even bring up the orginal statement with Mitt!

Mike ALlen was on later and said that its never good to have Rush talk bad about you. Then Hugh said something about how Mitt had fixed that!

“Yes, Mitt was not supportive. However, after he found out the facts, he had his people call Rush. They told Rush that Mitt would make a “corrective/supportive” statement “if he is asked about it”. Well, guess he hasn’t been asked! If and when he is asked it will be just too little and too late in my book.”


The corrupt Hugh Hewitt called Romney’s campaign to get Romney on the show to counter Rush’s disgust with Romney.

Now Romney is sounding down right right wing, defending Rush and using right wing language like loopy liberals and so one on, it is pure red meat language.

Through out that hour Hewitt keeps bumping how Romney has taken on the left defending Rush etc., he finished that hour saying that Fred just never got off the ground and that it is purely a Romney vs Guiliani race.

Hugh is a cheap salesman, who lacks honesty, and scruples.

The United States of America has, since it’s inception, been an asylum for liberty.

Don’t lose it.

Bush let the Dims/MSM beat him like a sick Pinata for six years and has absolutely NOTHING to show for it (except for te demolition of Reagan Conservatism).

I find it APPALLING that Mr. Romney’s guy posted this at Huffington Post.

Maybe we should check Daily Kos and DU for the same.

Mr. Romney’s statement and where he posted it is just WRONG, WRONG and WRONG!!!!!!!!
